GLENDALE, Ariz. – The Red Wings spoiled the big party in Arizona, bringing the Coyotes back to earth with a resounding thud in a 6-1 rout in Game 7 of their first-round playoff series last night.

Pavel Datsyuk scored twice in a span of less than two minutes and Nicklas Lidstrom had two goals a day shy of his 40th birthday for the Red Wings. Detroit, a Stanley Cup finalist the past two seasons, won in Arizona for the third time in the series to advance to a Western Conference second-round matchup with top-seeded San Jose.
